    Summary

    This is the first Torchwood fanfiction I wrote. I have posted it elsewhere, but wanted to post an edited, revised, up-dated edition here. I suspect there may be readers here who haven't read it and it seems a nice place to post - especially for those of us who like to download completed fics to read at our leisure.

    The title 'Magwitch' comes from the name of the escaped convict in Dickens' Great Expectations. A horrifying creature at first - he came out of the marshes to terrify young Pip. References to Miss Havisham's wedding will also crop up if you look carefully.

    This story is set after Gwen's wedding and features the fall-out from events that day. At the start, Jack is nowhere to be found, Ianto is angry and Owen is up to his elbows in a weevil autopsy. A trip out to the Gower peninsula seems like a good diversion for Ianto, somewhere to clear his head and put some distance between him and Jack. Then it turns out that someone's been experimenting on weevils and the results could prove fatal for Ianto.

    Summary

    An Arthurian themed AU featuring characters from Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series of books and the Lord John Grey stories.

    The enduring love triangle of Arthur, Guinevere and Lancelot retold with a different twist. Expect canon to be used and abused, mythology to be woven in as desired and for there to be scenes of an explicit nature.

    This is neither Outlander nor Arthurian legend as you may know it, or accept it, but it’s a story that wanted to be written. The characters are fictional and I’ve put them in an indeterminate time, so there will be less historical accuracy than my previous long story.

    Summary

    John returns to England still recovering from his injuries at Krefeld. Meanwhile there are agents who would rather he did not survive his wounds at all.
    His brother, Hal, determines that he would be safer at Helwater than in London and arranges with the Dunsanys for Jamie Fraser to be his personal bodyguard.
    Neither man is keen on this arrangement. The fact that it has been decided that Jamie should share a room with John is one of those reasons.

    Summary

    Crowley was still as stone beside him. His ears were cherry-red. “So...if we pretend we’re in a relationship, we’ll be safe.”

    “I believe so.”

    “And that would, that would involve, what?” he spoke hesitantly, softly. “Holding your hand, telling you that you mean a lot to me, kissing you for them to see?”

    Two great hands were constricting Aziraphale’s lungs. He fought back an undignified wheeze. “Yes, I think so.”

    “I can do that,” he croaked.
    ~
    In a panic, Aziraphale tells the archangels he survived hellfire due to his soul mixing with Crowley's because they're in a romantic and sexual relationship. They want him to prove it. Cue a fake relationship.
